    • D.

      Intrusi

    • E.

      Ektrusi

    Correct Answer
    B. Konvergen
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Konvergen". Konvergen refers to the process where two tectonic plates move towards each other, resulting in the collision or subduction of one plate beneath the other. This process often leads to the formation of mountains, volcanic activity, and earthquakes. It is the opposite of divergen, where two plates move away from each other. Degradasi refers to the process of breaking down or wearing away of rocks, while intrusi and ekstrusi refer to the movement of magma within or outside the Earth's crust respectively.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    Pada stasiun A mencatat gelombang primer pada pukul 23.45’.20” WIB dan gelombang sekunder pada pukul 23.50’.20” WIB. Maka jarak episentrum pada kejadian gempa tersebut adalah... ... km

    • A.

      1000

    • B.

      2000

    • C.

      3000

    • D.

      4000

    • E.

      5000

    Correct Answer
    E. 5000
    Explanation
    The time difference between the primary wave and the secondary wave is 5 minutes (23.50 - 23.45). Since the speed of the primary wave is faster than the secondary wave, we can assume that the primary wave arrived at the station first. The time difference between the arrival of the two waves is 5 seconds (0.20 - 0.20). We can use this time difference to calculate the distance of the epicenter using the formula Distance = Speed x Time. Assuming the speed of the waves is constant, the distance of the epicenter is 5000 km.
